Thanks for visiting!

My name is Scott Kondor and I make websites under the business name of Kondor with a K, Inc. As a freelance web developer, I’ve created many websites using the WordPress Content Management System (CMS). My goal is to focus on the details and dedicate proper time to produce a top quality website.

Through 20 years of development, including 13 years of professional experience, I have become a very detail oriented frontend and backend developer in the LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) environment. This helps me produce quality websites using WordPress, the most used CMS (Content Management System) on the internet. By working with many clients on a daily basis, I’ve been able to adapt quickly and solve their various bug fixes.

With full knowledge in HTML, CSS, PHP, jQuery and MySQL, I’m able to build websites from the ground up. Whether it’s testing, debugging, deployment or maintenance, I’m available for each stage of the process. Some of my qualifications include:

• Willing to adapt and learn new skills
• Developed hundreds of websites for personal and professional use
• Very proficient in HTML, CSS, PHP, MySQL, JavaScript, jQuery
• Turned hobby into a career which keeps me passionate about the constantly changing industry
• Self-motivated to learn new techniques, apply cutting edge scripts and improve code
• Interact well with others whether it be teaching, learning or working side-by-side
• Full knowledge of the Windows operating system and Microsoft Office applications
• Daily use of Sublime Editor and Adobe Photoshop for web use
• Strong communication and collaboration skills
